THURSDAY.
At* AN'TA, Oct. 24.—[Special.]—A fresh
assault was mado to-day on tho bill to
amend tho charter of tho Blacon and
Birmingham railroad. The bill passed
the House yesterday, receiving 00 votes.
Mr. liill of Meriwether this morning
raised tho point that the vote had been
erroneously counted. Uo stated uj<n
information that one member had bee n
recorded unvoting yes when ho voted no,
and two other members who were absent
were recorded as voting yes.
Mr. Hardeman tnet this disclosure by
rcoving tho appoint ment of a committee
of three to investigate the matter. It is
intimated tho committee will, in a ma
jority report, recommend that tho vote
be corrected and that then tho speaker
bo permitted to cast the deciding vote.
The friends of tho bill are backed up by
the authorities sustaining the right of
the speaker to vote in such a contin
gency. Tim loss of three votes will
leave the bill lacking one of a constitu
tional majority, but tho speaker's vote
will give the bill the necessary constitu
tional majority.

'*Hu-Un on the Icaio bill in tho Senate
t«h morning was very quiet. In man*

a matked con treat to the stormy debatee

Dlore important and aquahble-provokmg
itueudments offered, these cooler sena-
t^riul methods contribute so essentially
the dispatch of business that there ie
itti-i doubt that tho Senate will disporo

‘“llj ritoti order.

FITZGERALD FOR TIIE SALE.
Two of these aro important and tho
Scnato will certainly divide when they
come up. Tho first is tho amendment to
section 13 offered by Mr. Fitzgerald look
ing toward a ralo of tin? road.
When this was read 31r. Rico raid he
took it for granted that nobody seriously
contemplated a sale of the staio road.
31r. Fitzgerald replied emphatically
that if tho Senator labored under that
doubt ho might look to have it effect
ually removed whcin his amendment
canto up, and he intimated that he had
a strong ft Rowing.
This afternoon Mr. Fitzgerrld is raid
to be counting on the support of at leutt
fifteen voters. A surprise is in store if
so many should materialise; but tho
Senate, with a full attendance, will even
then waste little time m putting a quietus
on their hopes.
The real opening for a sharp debate is
furni.-l.ed by the Bartlett resolutions re
stricting bidding. A del ate may bo ex
pected, but there docs not appear to bo
much probability that a great deal of
time will be sacrificed in the settlement
of this point either.
WILL SENATE AND HOUSE LOCK IIORN8?
Within a very few days it will likely
become apparent whether the legislature
is or is not to adjourn on tho 2d of
November. Unless the llouso declines
to accept the Senate’s sulstituto and tho
two bodice stubl on ^3 lock horns tho
lease bill will be out ot the way, and tiie
question is supposed to depend entirely
upon tho bill.

AMENDMENTS TO FECUON TWO.

3’r. Harris of the forty-second prt-
postd to amend, by striking from tho
second line, the winds •*20tl» of hovem-
ter” and substitutiug therefor 13th of
October.
The senator explained that the object
of his amendment was to allow time for
rcad'crtising and getting new bids in
the event tho hist cttorl to lease should
fal.
Mr. Hull raid the object of tho com
mittee in soltd iitg the 20th of Novem
ber was thut tli.ro should not lie time
lei t for tho le».-ec:i to carry out tluir
ti.rt ats to run dawn the road. In draw
ing up the Mibfctituto they had been
cartful to allow only ntoul half a dozen
days between the |*rfecting of the new
t nt ienor. He did not think Um road
c«>uld be futully damaged within that
time.
31r. Shrnuon called attention to the
fact that the gauge of entire long line* of
road ) ad been changed in a single Cftv,
and inquired whether tho leruces could
not in six cays reduce the We tern and
Atlantic to whatever condition they saw-
fit.
BIr. Hall thought they wt u’d not at-
toaint to chaugo the gauge U-tauso the
LoutsnUo oud .Nashville i xiectod to bid
for the rood. Some harm mfgiit ho done,
Lut that iron bridge.-, could t>* torn dow it
